Just learned about this HOBY thing and saw they offer scholarships. I'm super interested! Does anyone know the process to apply for a HOBY scholarship, and what the requirements are?
Congratulations on discovering the HOBY program! It's a fantastic leadership development opportunity for high school students. To apply for a HOBY scholarship, you'll need to follow a few steps.
First, check the HOBY website (www.hoby.org) for information on the specific scholarships available. They usually have a page or section dedicated to their scholarship offerings.
Next, pay attention to the eligibility criteria and requirements for each scholarship you're interested in. This typically includes details such as your current grade level, community service involvement, and leadership experiences.
Once you determine which scholarships you're eligible for, gather the necessary application materials. This often includes items like a personal essay, letters of recommendation, and your high school transcript.
Finally, submit your application by the specified deadline for each scholarship. Make sure to double-check everything and give yourself ample time to complete the application process.
While the HOBY program does offer scholarships, their main focus is on hosting leadership seminars and conferences for high school students. If you haven't already, you should definitely explore their programs and consider attending one of these events to further develop your leadership skills. Good luck with your application process!
